Key Finding

The top-activating emotions are nearly identical across both corpora: reflective, lonely, desperate, grief-stricken, heartbroken. This consistency across very different text distributions (raw internet text vs. user-AI conversations) suggests the vectors capture genuine semantic properties rather than artifacts of the story generation process.
